The Cameleon V2 IS a "COMPROMISE" at best antenna, do'es it work...... well sort of .
A good ground is the key factor with this antenna , another factor is the tuner used with it .
There is only so much you can do (or expect to do ) with a 102" radiator no mater what the tuning system.
IMHO you would be much better off with a long wire (43 foot or better) than this antenna, I wouldn't exactly call it an "AIR COOLED DUMMY LOAD" but close.
There is no one "PERFECT ANTENNA" especially where mobile operation is involved, but you can do a lot better with a lot less $$ involved.
